Euphorbia tirucalli (Pencil Cactus) 10”

!NOT ELIGIBLE FOR SHIPPING!

Euphorbia tirucalli is a succulent tree native to a large part of Africa, as well as some surrounding islands, and the Arabian peninsula. Sometimes called "Firesticks" because the plant produces anthocyanins when exposed to intense sunlight - causing it to blush vibrant shades of orange and red. It is a hydrocarbon plant that is very toxic if ingested, and can cause blindness if gotten into the eyes.   

Euphorbia tirucalli enjoys very bright indirect light to full sun, a gritty, well-draining soil, moderate to high temps, and has no desire for higher humidity levels. Likes to dry thoroughly in-between waterings.

May need to be repotted yearly.
